London, May 25.—Mr. Robert Todd Lincoln, the new United States minister to the rourt of St James, has been besieged all day long by American visitors anxious to pay their respects to him and incidentally to court his influence or to let it be known or make it appear that they are among the number of persons privileged to greet him familiarly. Mr. Lincoln has also been th? recipient of numerous invitations to various entertainments in his honor, but has uniformly declined to make any engagements until he shall have been presented to the queen when Mr. Lincoln will take luncheon at Windsor Castle. In consequence of Lord Salisbury's inability to present Mr. Lincoln, because of the necessity of his presence at a cabinet meeting, that duty will be performed by Viscount Cross, secretary of state for Ireland.New York, May 25.—During the past month Inspector Byrnes ha* been in receipt of numerous complaints from various big dry goods and jewelry Arms on Sixth avenue, Grand, Fourteenth and Twenty-third street), to the effect that they had been swindled by two women who had tendered forge 1 checks in paymeut for goods purchased.

St. Louis, May 25.—The regular west bound express train on the St Louis and San Francisco railroad was wrecked three miles west of Sullivan, Ma, anc' more than forty persons were injured, some of them, perhaps, mortally. An investigation by the train men and passengers who escaped injury showed conclusively that the disaster was caused by train wreckers. The object of the wreckers is not clear. If it was robbery, there must have been some miscalculation, for the wreckers were not on hand to plunder the passengers. The spot chosen is one of most dangerous on the line. There is a sharp curve, and an embankment forty feet deep The spikes and flsh plates joining the rails had been taken up and the rails turnod. The owners of the cottage, Mr. and Mrs. Carlison, refused to talk about it, saying they would tell their story to the police. A young woman living at Mr. Sullivan's said that three weeks ago she saw a light in the house, but no one has been seen there since. It |is said that the parties who rental the place were two young men, evidently Irishmen. It is said that the cottage was hired by the assassins of Dr. Crouiu and he was decoyed to it High Sheriff Gates was summoned by telegraph from his home in Derby and one of his deputies was detailed to spond the night at the cashier's residence. President Bigelow and the other officers of the bank ore reticent, but say that the bank is all right Mr. Bradley is one of the most popular men in New Haven.

Discovery of a Plot for a General Delivery of Convicts. While the basiu in which Dr. Cronin was discovered was being dragged by two reporters among other things found was the end of a finger with the nail and a long piece of white skin attached. The nail has the appearance of having come from the band of a woman. At first it wos the telief that it had come from one of the doctor's hands. A visit was made to the undertaking shop where the body ot Dr. Cronin lies. They were sure that it could not be the doctor's finger. Can it be possible that another life was taken at the time Dr. Cronin was assassinated! Is it possible that the story told by Woodruff regarding the mutilated body of a woman can be true? Jersey City, May 25.—The warden of Hudson county penitentiary, at Snake Hill, discovered a plot for a general delivery of convicts confined in that institution. Suspicious conferenoee of five long termed prisoners caused a search of their cells being made, when ten flies, six knives, Ave saws, ten drills, a pair of compasses and other articles were discovered.

German Compositors Holding a Congress. Planed Under Arrest. Leipsic, Moy 25.—The compositors of Germany are holding a congress here, composed of delegates representing every city and town of importance in the empire. Their proceedings thus far have resulted in the formulation and passage of a resolution demanding a universal working day of nine and a half hours and the abolishment of piece work. Several isolated attempts hav* heretofore been made to introduce hour work instead of piece work, but the employers bave refused to make the cbange demanded. The resolution passed by the congress threatens a general strike unless the substitution is made. The cfflcors placed them under arrest, much to their surprise and indignation, and brought them to the central office. On the way down, and while in a Fourth avenue car, one of the women opened her pocketbook and attempted to destroy some bits of paper that were folded therein. Aloncle saw the movement and wrested the pocketbook from her Justin time to prevent her from destroying a number of forged checks. When brought before the inspector they maintained a stoical indifference, an 1 refused to make any statement whatever. They assumed *n injured air, and refused to be questioned concerning the matter. On one of the slips of paper in the pocketbook was found the number of their boarding house on Madison avenue where they were stopping, and inquiry at this place revealed the real or professional names of the swindlers. The elder one is Mrs. Bech, and her partner in crime is known as Dolly Verner. Both are very pretty, and the former is a trifle lame. FOR 8 ALE BY A. B. BROWN.
